Step-by-step explanation:
Given: □ABCD is a rectangle.
AB= 8 cm & diagonal (AC)= 17 cm.
To find: Perimeter of a rectangle.
Solution:
In □ ABCD,
Triangle ABC is a right - angled triangle
In which,
Hypotenuse= AC= 17 cm
Base= BC. & Height= 8 cm
. . By pythagoras theorem,
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (Height)2
( AC)2 = ( BC)2. + ( AB)2
(17)2. = ( BC)2. + ( 8)2
289 = ( BC)2. + 64
( BC)2 = 289 - 64
( BC)2 = 225
. . BC. = 15 cm
Permeter of a rectangle = 2 ( l+b )
= 2 ( 15+8 )
= 2 × 23
= 46
. . Perimeter of a rectangle is 46 cm.
